April 16-20
We have been designing and planning our experiments this week. Next week we will build our planters and set up our experiments.
Remember to take lots of pictures and video clips for your app!
I am very excited to introduce our Galileo Project to you. We will be combining our investigation and experiments of the feasibility of indoor gardening with the creation of apps. Yes, you read that right - we get to grow plants and MAKE and APP!!! http://www.buzztouch.com/pages/ http://ibuildapp.com
A little research is needed in advance. Please check out websites and youtube links on the possibililties on indoor gardening (click on this link). We need to determine a design (or several designs) that we can use in our classroom.
We also need a little research done to provide information on growing styles and basic necessities (ie. monoculture for mass production, home gardening, square foot gardening, organic, fertilizer usage, soil conditions, basic needs of plants, etc...)
We will continue to work on making our APPS (www.ibuildapp.com)
Please remember to return your Drumheller Permission Forms.
